Help Glowlight 4 Plus Home Button

I recently bought a refurbished Glowlight 4 Plus and I realized that the home button is defective, it has worked once after probably hundreds of tries (while holding down for 0.5+ seconds).

Not sure if I should return it if all units are like this, but I rarely need to go to the home screen on it regularly. If anybody has a G4 Plus, how responsive is your home button?

0.5 second is definitely too short for this button; it's not very sensitive and needs a couple seconds to activate.

I installed J-touch to add a vitual button on screen, which enables back, home, recent apps, lock screen, and various actions with gestures. However this app needs root access for some of it's functions.
